Gillian Blades took a long time to get established, 5 years. She had a few drop dead, gorgeous blooms the first 4 years. She was worth keeping just for those. Gillian was much better the 5th year with a few dozen blooms and a dozen or so in a later rebloom. A 100+ blooms the 6 year with 50+ on the rebloom was more than I ever expected.
